Complexity Preview
The juggernaut of CS:GO, Complexity has been a surprise despite the lack of big ticket names in the game. The team has a mixture of Danish, North American and a Bulgarian player in poizon. The raw talent on this squad makes it a potential contender for this tournament.
Complexity has a massive 94% win-rate on Dust2 as the players are able to use their individual skill to maximum impact on the map. The team also has a huge win-rate on Nuke which is partly due to the in-game leadership of blameF.
Despite being the in-game leader on the squad, blameF is also the best performing player on the squad. It is rare for an in-game leader to also top-frag on the team and this is what makes Complexity one of the most promising upcoming CS:GO players. BlameF has a 1.22 rating and has done an average of 86.5 damage per round.
forZe Preview
Meanwhile, forZe has been very active in recent weeks and has produced some quality results against local opponents. The 28th ranked team has been in good form, winning three of its last five matches. They've won its latest games against SG.pro, Syman and AGF. However,they lost to Endpoint in their last match of the tournament.
They are extremely strong on Inferno, Mirage and Dust2 where the players are able to shine due to individual skill and excellent team synergy. Their performance in recent matches has relied heavily on xsepower. The player has had a 1.17 rating in recent matches and is one of the most promising players from the CIS region.
Pick: Complexity ML (-212 @ Pinnacle)
Complexity is ranked higher than forZe. While forZe has defeated Complexity multiple times in the past, the Complexity roster simply has a higher skil ceiling and entered the players break on a high. BlameF mentioned that he has been studying opponents during the players break and I expect Complexity to come out much stronger in this tournament. I am taking Complexity to win this match against forZe.
